The Perks of a Virtual Consultation at The Brace Place

As you probably already know, a few weeks ago, we made the difficult decision to close our practice during the COVID-19 crisis. We’re doing our part to protect our patients and staff, and to help #flattenthecurve. But while our doors may be closed, our team is still here to serve our Claremore and Tulsa orthodontic patients. We miss seeing your smiling faces at The Brace Place, so we’ve found a way to connect with you online.

Introducing virtual appointments: a safe, socially distant way to learn more about orthodontic treatment, meet our team and discuss your treatment options. Self-isolation doesn’t have to stand in the way of getting the smile of your dreams. Virtual appointments are a quick and simple first step in the orthodontic process. Ready to find out more? Here are the benefits of a virtual consultation with The Brace Place.

1. Allows You to Practice Social Distancing

Social distancing is the one thing that each of us can do to bring us closer to ending this pandemic. Now is not the time for social gatherings, group events or physical contact. It’s also not the time for unnecessary visits outside your home, and that includes orthodontic appointments. That’s not to say orthodontic appointments are unnecessary, though — far from it! They’re crucial to helping you achieve your best smile and oral health. But scheduling virtual appointments is the best way to ensure you get the care and answers you need, all while keeping everyone safe and healthy.

2. Super Convenient, At-Home Guidance

All of our lives are turned upside down right now. Maybe you’re adjusting to working from home for the first time or you’ve got kids to entertain all day. Between all of the new changes every day, it would be tough to carve out the time to get into our office. Fortunately, now you don’t have to worry about it. With a virtual appointment, simply fill out the form on our website from wherever you’re weathering the storm and book a time that works for you. Visiting your Tulsa and Claremore orthodontist has never been more convenient.

3. Getting Started is Easy as 1,2,3

Not super computer savvy? Never had a virtual appointment before? Don’t worry! We’ve made the entire process as simple as possible so you can get the most out of your virtual experience with Dr. Patel. All you have to do is fill out the form with a few details about yourself, tell us about your concerns and goals, and one of our team members will reach out via phone or email. So it doesn’t matter if it’s your first online appointment or your hundredth. We’re here to help you every step of the way.

4. Get Answers in Real Time

Once we have your information, it’s time for the magic to happen. Dr. Patel can begin to develop a treatment plan based on your unique situation and desired results. During your virtual appointment, you’ll have the opportunity to ask any and all questions you have about orthodontic treatment, how the process works and how long it will take. The best part? You’ll get answers immediately so we can get a head start on your treatment plan. Our goal is to give you the most thorough understanding of your options so you can make an informed decision for your oral health.

5. It’s Totally Free

Virtual consultations at The Brace Place are for everyone, no referrals or commitment required. If, after talking to Dr. Patel, you decide not to move forward with treatment, that’s totally up to you. But if you’re ready to take the next step towards your perfect smile, we’ll make sure to get you in as soon as we open our doors.

At The Brace Place, we believe everyone deserves to put their best smile forward. We want to thank you all for your patience and understanding during these challenging times as we do our best to keep you all safe. Until we can see you in person, virtual consultations will give you the answers you need to prepare for treatment. When life returns to normal, we’ll be here to welcome you with open arms.

I cannot say enough great things about The Brace Place! We have been with them for YEARS!! My son, who is now a freshman, just got his braces off today after extensive treatment and my daughter, who is in 7th, is currently still in them. They are friendly, professional, affordable and just simply amazing at what they do!! Go there. You won't be disappointed!

Dr. Patel and his staff are great. They did an awesome job on our daughter. Haley always made the visits interesting and treated our daughter like part of the family. The staff always explained the procedures to make sure we understood what was happening. I would highly recommend Dr. Patel and his staff.

As an adult patient I felt my input with the treatment plan was taken into consideration, compared to other offices who gave me one option. Scheduling was never a problem, they worked me in immediately if I had any issues. Everyone was always super friendly and took the time to get to know me. Dr. Patel was always great and encouraging! I definitely will be bringing my son here for his turn!

From our very first visit at The Brace Place, I was impressed!! ALL the ladies that work along with Dr. Patel and very professional, knowledgeable, friendly and thorough. Then, there's Dr. Patel...he is absolutely awesome. He always greets not only my kids, but myself as well. He always amazes me on how he remembers everyone's name!!! My son was first to get braces, two and a half years ago. At that time, I thought my daughter needed them as well. She had her first exam, which was free, and Dr. Patel said that she wasn't ready for them yet and he would re-check her in a year. We went back, a year later, again for a free exam and Dr. Patel said she still wasn't ready. She was finally ready in May of last year. What I'm trying to say is that he didn't try to put braces on her until he thought she was ready. My son just got his braces off this week and I couldn't be happier with the results. Dr. Patel was spot on when he originally told me how long my son would need the braces on...30 months, just like he originally told me. Lastly, The Brace Place has a really cool coffee machine!! I would highly recommend The Brace Place....you won't be sorry!!!!

My son just recently got his braces off after 2.5 years. Every single visit we were welcomed with a friendly face. Any little issue you may have, they will work hard to get you in quick. Any questions answered happily and thoroughly. They take care of their patients, take the time to explain everything being done... and always with a smile. Dr Patel, and his staff, are highly recommended by me and my son!

Dr. Patel and his staff have been wonderful! They always welcome you with a smile and genuinely care. I had braces with them for a little over 2 years and recently had them taken off. I am so happy with the results and have received so many compliments!

I was a little apprehensive getting braces at my age but Dr. Patel and his staff made me feel very comfortable and explained all my options. I decided to go with the Invisalign and I can say I am extremely pleased. I highly recommend The Brace Place.

The Brace Place is the BEST place to go for orthodontic needs!! Dr. Patel and his entire staff are the friendliest people I have been around in a long time. They treat you like family. The entire facility is kept super clean and disinfected. He worked wonders on my daughters teeth! She loves her smile and so do we.

Had a wonderful experience with them! Staff was extremely friendly and always helpful! Any questions I had they would answer before I could even ask! Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND anyone to them their amazing!!!!
